Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist and immigrant, will be sworn in as New York City's first Muslim mayor on January 1, 2025, in dual ceremonies highlighting his progressive vision. The midnight oath by Attorney General Letitia James in an abandoned subway station will use historic Qurans, followed by Senator Bernie Sanders administering the oath at City Hall steps. While promising a 'new era,' Mamdani's team blends establishment veterans with radical appointees.
